The importance of pillow height for your comfort: find the ideal size

The height of your cervical memory foam pillow plays a key role in the quality of your sleep and pain prevention. An improper height can cause muscle tension, headaches, and disrupt your night's rest.

How to determine the ideal height

The optimal height of a cervical pillow depends primarily on your body shape and sleeping position. For side sleepers, measure the distance between your shoulder and your ear: this is approximately the required pillow height. The ZenPur model, with its 13cm height, is suitable for most body shapes, offering an ideal compromise between support and comfort.

The adaptation of memory foam

The advantage of a memory foam pillow lies in its adaptability. Even with a fixed height, memory foam compresses differently depending on your head weight and body temperature. This personalized compression creates an "effective" height perfectly suited to your individual needs, which is why an adjustment period of 2-3 nights is necessary.

The consequences of poor height

A pillow that's too high forces your neck into an unnatural position, creating tension in your cervical muscles and potentially compressing nerves. Conversely, a pillow that's too low doesn't adequately support your head, causing your spine to sag. These misalignments can cause snoring, mild sleep apnea, and chronic fatigue.

The evolution of your needs

Your pillow height needs may change over time. Weight changes, age, or even a new mattress may require adjustment. The 99-night trial guarantee ensures the height is right for your needs over the long term. A quality pillow with OEKO-TEX certification maintains its height and support properties for years.
